printing concealed carry weapon

This is a discussion on printing concealed carry weapon within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Does anyone know if its legal or not to print your concealed carry in arkansas, tho i would try my best not to?...

I think a general assumption can be implied that if open carry is allowed in your state then printing is legal. With people wearing cell phones & multi-tools on their belt chances are it won't be recognized as a firearm unless the complete outline is showing.

To much emphasis is on "printing" IMHO. In today's world of cell phones/electronics, and all the "stuff" that is put on a belt a simple cover garment generally is sufficient. Very seldom is something printing that is unquestionably a gun. 99.9% of the time, paranoia about your gun printing is far worse than the printing itself. Additionally the sheep out there have no clue how to spot a concealed weapon, and there is more of a danger of a "man with a gun" getting called on someone trying to stuff a sub-sandwich down their pants than a concealed handgun with a simple cover garment.

People have talked about the Hawaiian shirts that break up the printing pattern, etc. I just wear my everyday shirts that cover it up and go about my business. I don't every worry about printing, just coverage.

M.A.N. (The OP) Can I strongly suggest that you research the laws for yourself, or seek legal advice from a qualified legal expert in AR law (Such as a lawyer?). To start your search I would go back to the information the state police provides regarding concealed carry (found here) Or go to the actual law website found HERE
